Re: [Gc-linux-devel] Building a SD card adapter

[Shaun J. <sja...@gm...>]

Hello Rob,

The SD card receptacle that I have is reversed from the one you used
-- the SD card goes in upside down -- so I drew my own circuit board
[1]. I've built the board, but so far it doesn't work. If you had a
moment, would you mind looking at my circuit? I'm almost positive
there's nothing wrong with it, but I'd appreciate another pair of
eyes.

Thanks,
Shaun
